Sussex Lookup Requests / Re: Parents of Thomas & Henry Brett, Hastings please
« on: Saturday 04 October 08 18:31 BST (UK)  »
Hi Annie

thanks for posting in this thread.
I had not come across the name Jazer before, only Harriet.
1871 census gives Harriet as Heny's wife, occupation "Tailor's nip" age 26 born Wadhurst.
1861 census return I seem to recall showed a Harriet Humphrey living with Thomas and Mary before she dies; but of course that is the one I don't seem to have a copy of

The 1851 census does show a Harriet Humphrey age 6 at Reed Cottage Wadhurst - daughter of Anna and Jessee (Agricultural labourer). the registration district for Wadhurst is Ticehurst. It would be good to find a marige certificate to tie these census entries together.

My Grandfather was Charles b 16 April 1898 @ 87 Emanual Rd St Marys Hastings (Alonzo's home) to Emily Philadelphia Southwell of Emanual vicarage Westhill Hastings.
Emily died 2 March 1947 Model Cott Farnborough Rd Farnborough Hants. I think she is buried in Hastings, probably with Alonzo, but Charles did not seem to keep in touch with the rest of his family, presumably including you; so I have no details about what happened to Alonzo or Emily and Arthur.

So I would be very interested in any further info you could give me

regards
Nigel

Hi Chris
thanks for all the census results, lots of siblings to follow up.

Your 1066 pages are very helpful too -
in the St Clements Church, Hastings Burial Register Transcriptions 1803 - 1834
there is a Matilda Brett, so she died  age 6 months
and a Thomas Brett,  24 Dec 1828 age 29, but that doesn't quite fit with his wife Sarah remarrying that year.
 :-\

please can you suggest the balance of probability of which dates are correct?
